in the first picture you can see a caldari mothership ... does that means ms' will be able to transport troops from planet to another planet ?

If the console version is done (as vaguely suggested) then possibly a christmas release. maybe?

If that is so then that means the next major content patch (due in the northern hemisphere's winter, Novemberish, not the mini content patch 1.5 due in a day or so) will possibly contain the bits that integrate EVE with DUST514. It would also explain why they are putting effort into getting the COSMOS social networking thingy ready for the november content patch.

What makes you think a ship can sit and bombard a planet from orbit for hours on end?

---

The fact that a sniper Apoc with Tachyon IIs in Low-Earth Orbit has roughly a 50% chance of hitting a running human-sized target?

(Yes, I ran the numbersà )

2 separate but linked persistent-world games? Dynamically connected via a social networking site? This has the potential for epic win.

One of the first real steps forward in gaming in over a decade (provided they deliver the goods.)

taking bets for actual release date.

I'm in for November 11, 2017

I think they are much closer to release than they expected last year. That is why WiS had to be postponed and the sovereignty changes taken care of in the winter patch.

EDIT: Seeing that that this a product who has been developed primarily by the Shanghai department of CCP it makes me wonder what the Atlanta group is doing (besides writing mission descriptions). Maybe WoD is also much closer to release than anybody expects, though I seriously don't hope CCP will try to integrate that MMO with the EVE universe too.

Isn't this also the first console FPS that can actually be played by 360 and PS3 users connected to the same server? Xbox Live and PS Home is not very compatible at all.

(2) CCP would be beyond insane not to want their existing customer base to be able to play Dust, since there's only 1 FPS game that all EvE players will be interested in, but dozens that console owners can be be interested in.

Originally by: Veldya

It sounds interesting but if they ****block space conquest by requiring ground conquest then it could have disastrous effects on EVE MMO itself. I doubt many EVErs are avid console players so will force a melding of the 30+ PC gamers with the 6+ Console players, it will get ugly. You think Goons are bad on CAOD...

Lets save all the emo rage and crying untill after we found out exactly how much of a part of claiming SOV this will effect, for all we know its going to only have a 10% effect on claiming sov...

Or maybe if your planet is being invaded you cant cyno-jam the system, or build capitals there or whatever, or maybe it wont make a diffrence at all.

Lets have a group unbunching of the panties ladies.

For all we know this could turn out to be the best thing thats happened to eve, it certainly looks like a hell of alot of fun :D

Come on people. We will not know any of the facts for a while. Just wait will you and CCP have not saif that a pc version will not come out if you remember.
Cant belive the console rage, i enjoy a good session of console play after playing eve to much. Playing Dust will allow me to play eve fps and still be involved in this awesome universe whether on console or pc. You rule CCP

maybe dust claming system would be only for <0.5 (lowsec) system that are NPC owned? not player owned?

---

It says "Intaki system" in the lower left corner in the beginning of the trailer. A 0.1 system. So propably only low sec. Maybe this will be the change of low sec that the forums have been screaming for?

If this game is what it promises, it offers something no other FPS game has: consequences. Seeing your clan not just ruling some stats, but actually taking territory, and being respected on message boards for accomplishments - that's something that has to appeal. I'm not an FPS gamer, but I have to think that consequences and a political map has a lot of appeal, just as that had enough appeal to me to get me into this here spaceship game.

---

agreed, i think this will appeal to alot of consoleers

---

Actually, while that is a nice idea and many people even fear it to be true, I seriously doubt that CCP would allow FPS gamers to have any control over 0.0 sov - or even interfere with 0.0 alliances in any meaningful way.

You only have to look at CCP's implementation of Faction Warfare to understand what I mean. This new FPS thing is going to be very similar - there will be new goals and objects, but they will have 0 impact on actual game world. Nothing in FW really matters - no real system sec changes, no station take overs, absolutely no impact on anyone not wanting to participate.

If CCP was too afraid to have consequences for FW, what makes people seriously believe they will be different for something even bigger and more important - such as 0.0 sov?

No, for better or worse, we will not see planet-side FPS have deciding factor in 0.0 sov or alliance 0.0 warfare.

DUST will greatly increase the level of detail in the EVE universe going from single individuals up to titan blobs. This is simply awesome.

Originally by: Bestofworst Worstofbest

You don't have to buy Dust 514, just hire them to do your battles. Not your cup of tea fine. They just announced it and if they can make a comfortable hop over to PC they will.

CCP is expanding their technologies and their horizons. They want to raise general awareness and get a following from more than just the MMO crowd. Cause in the end they are trying to make a persistent gaming world, not just spaceships online.

This also pushes other Eve developments up on the cycle. CCP will preety much expect to release an update to SOV and also an update to Planet Graphics with the launch of Dust 514. Not to mention the animations, code and graphics is all there to keep working on WIS. And if it works well they will expend it adding into planetary flight possibly.

So at the Fanfest they'll have all-PC audience of hardcore EVE gamers, and CCP will present their console exclusive Dust game that influences 0.0 sov.

Alright then, mind sharing with the rest of the class what setup of subsystems make up a proteus that looks like that? The closest i came up with was this Now if you find it, be sure to share it and the subsystem makeup, please.

i hope so too. maybe atmospheric flight and WiS both in the same expansion (the 2010 summer one)

In the discussion with heise on-line CEO Hilmar Veigar PTtursson stated that Dust, if one sees on the history of CCP - will probably be based on a Abo based on-line Shooter in a MMO world.

With Abo based i guess you mean subscription based? Thats just not cool.

looks like its going to be a persistent MMO world though, with level-ups and all

Or perhaps they are just checking to see how much flames they got for not releasing a PC version and how many actually leave over it.

If the rage is tollerable and not too many leave over it, they just go on and don't release a PC version.

Just a theory :p

Whats also noteable from the latest interview, is that fighting can occur only on those planets which have proper conditions.

Gas-Planets e.g. cant be subjects to battlegrounds.

---

Not disputing what was said, just the reasoning behind it. Some of our ships are a mile long, and can turn on a dime and travel faster than light on some magical "energy" in our capacitors, and they've not figured out how to make floating cities for gas giants with artificial gravity?

Lol, ok

Besides, a POS/station/enclosed envronments are good for FPS, as they don't have artificial barriers. But ... whatever :)

In fact, in the Dominion presentation, Torfi let slip that in trying to make things look consistent across both games, they've had to make sure that they can use the same planetary shaders in Trinity and in (drumroll) UnrealEngineà
àso yeah.

It's more like BF2142 Titan match (except you dont actually board it and take out the core). Instead of silos you get some missile installations, and you still have to capture some points on map and probably hold them or smth. It's nothing new, but hey - it should work.

Project reality is real deal and much harder to play sucesfully, while this is a console arcade shooter (from footage seen so far).
